Photos must be received no later than Friday to be considered.

Check your Dive Folders: Every family has a dive team folder. If your child participated in any dive meets (A or B Meet) they will receive a ribbon and their Meet Sheet (so they can see how they scored on each dive). Also, if you volunteered and have reimbursed expenses, your check will be inside your family folder. Folders will be emptied at the end of the season. Please clean out your folder if you would like to have your ribbons and meet sheets.

Last Call for T-shirts: If you have not picked up your team shirt, you may take one out of the box near the dive folders.

Email from Parliament Pool for Tuesday’s Meet: The Parliament Panthers are excited to welcome you to our pool this Tuesday, July 20th, for the fifth dive meet of the season!

We invite your team to take to the boards (we have two) beginning at 5pm for warm-ups. You will have 45 minutes to warm-up. Freshmen girls will take a bounce beginning at 5:50pm and the meet will begin promptly at 6pm.

We request that you supply three judges and two table workers. We will supply the rest of the necessary volunteers. We would like to get your team's dive sheets to the table no later than 5:15 pm so the Referee has time to give them the standard courtesy check. We ask that all judges arrive no later than 5:40 for the briefing.

Some of our concessions will be the normal concession fare available for purchase - drinks, single-serving snacks, cup-o-noodles, etc.. For the dinner meal, we will be offering pulled pork sliders, burgers/hot dogs and cheese pizza.
